I'm trying to figure out whats going on here. I have a small project with a texinfo file in the doc/ directory. I have
info_TEXINFOS= foo.texi BUILT_SOURCES= foo.texi in Makefile.am and foo.texi gets created from foo.texi.in with autoconf (there are a handful of values which get propagated to several places including the documentation). In the texi file there is an @include version.texi after the header. Everything seems ok when I build, but 'make distcheck' gives the following error: gmake[3]: Entering directory `/export/disk1/src/foo/foo-0.5/=build/doc' cp: ../../doc/stamp-vti: Permission denied this is because its trying to copy $(srcdir)/version.texi to $(srcdir)/stamp-vti, but $(srcdir) is read-only for 'distcheck'. Is this a bug or a pilot error? Thanks -Dan
